OMG that's savage, really hate seeing big crashses like that....:dapprove:
Octavia VRS
Ouch some mess
Going slightly off topic, I was watching a rerun of 5th Gear last night where they crashed a new Espace into a 9 year old model at 35mph. The new one is the safest car NCAP have ever tested and the airbag never even deployed on impact due to the strength of the crumple zones. However due to the strength of the new Espace, it would have killed the driver of the old Espace as it went right through to the drivers area.

clio`s are safe, but an interesting point raised there... if cars get tougher for their occupants its inevitably going to have concequences for the things it hits i.e slightly less strong cars, so it could become a battle of the strongest shell.
the Mercedes Mclaran SLR has a hundreds honeycomb carbon fiber layers in the nose to gradually soften the impact of a blow.. straight from F1 technology, hence prince dick head naseem walked out of his slr unharmmed in a head on collision and wearing no seatbelt.. shame then that only the rich and wrekless get these technologies, wonder how long it will be before this carbon fiber impact technology arrives in our clio`s ???? 10yrs ? but at least it will be light, rather than bloting the car up with steel bars which stop the car deforming but do little to reduce impact forces for the passengers inside.
